Evony Age 2 Guide

Many players are doing what is called a prestige run these days, using a few days to gain millions of prestige. Prestige runs have been done several times and is quite easy to do. So a prestige run is not really something new to Evony, but still most players don’t really know how to take advantage of the prestige run strategy.

First thing you need for a prestige run is a lot of archers, since you will be killing these archers to gain this prestige. To gain 14 million prestige you would need about 1 million archers, 28 million prestige would be 2 million archers, etc. This is assuming you get 14 prestige points for each archers who dies. So how do you get this much prestige for killing archers then? Read the rest of this entry »

Bluffing is a good strategy in war, but bluffing in Evony Age II seems pretty useless. The only time I can see a use for this stratagem is early in the game when all armies are small. What it does is to make the number of marching troops look 5 to 10 times bigger. If you see 1 million catapults marching towards you, you know that the player has to have used this stratagem, we still have the rally point limit in Evony Age II after all. The stratagem lasts for 12 hours.

This offense stratagem is really useful I think, especially later in the game. When other players has millions of scouts in their cities it is very hard to scout them the normal way. Using this stratagem you can see how many troops they have in their city without having to use and scouts of your own. The stratagem is quite cheap compared to the other offense stratagems, so I can see this being one being used quite a lot.

The empty city is quite the opposite stratagem to regard bushes and trees as soldiers. Instead of making your army look larger than it is on the scout report, this stratagem make it look smaller, only 10% to 20% of it’s actual value. This can be useful to trick someone to attack into a massive defense wall and make you crush them in battle. It is active for 24 hours.

The scout bombing or scout bombs strategy seems to be pretty popular these days, and this is how it works. Basically when you send scouts out to attack and city with gates open they will attack the group of units with highest total number of attack points. Cause of that it is a great way to wear down a heavily defended city before sending in the real units to finish the city off. Loosing scouts is real cheap after all, and they are extremely fast to rebuild. Attacking with 100,000 scouts you can take out as many as 30,000 archers or 5,000 ballistas, depending on what troops the target has in his city. Read the rest of this entry »
